You have 6500 hrs and are flying a trash 8..

So........

Times have changed versus 5 years ago.. many more people have jet time versus turboprop time. As this trend continues in the years to come, TP time will become less and less valuable. We're already seeing that with some of the major carriers.. As example: obviously JetBlue has a reason they've stopped putting TP guys in the Airbus... and its not because they flew in shlt weather or flew 10 legs per day.. get a clue, they can't handle a advanced, automated jet.

For some reason, prop guys seem to have tunnel vision on this subject

My 7,000 hours of Turboprop time didn't do sh!t for me. Although, it did get me into a confusing cockpit at Southwest. I'm so lost and behind the airplane all the time. I hope no one catches on and weeds me out.

Funny though, in the last year SWA actually cut loose three pilots who had trouble in the cockpit. Turns out they all came from jet backgrounds and not turboprop.

Looks like that 1000 TP PIC is really workin out well for ya.

Its a shame your mother didn't stop her drinking during your pregnancy.

Maybe, just possibly, not everyone wants to come fly regional jets with you.

Maybe I bit too easily on this flamebait.

1000 PIC doesn't mean as much as Colgan fanatics make it out to...

Super. I'll trade anybody my 3000 SIC for their 1000 PIC and race them to SWA. See you at the finish line.

Well it looks like you went from a SF340 to a E170. You must be like the awesomest pilot ever dude. How did you handle going from such a primimitive aircraft like the saab to the Starship Enterprise (E170). Far out man.

Greedypilot, I guess your at Republic! And If you are, well all I can say is that your not that greedy. Those payrates SUCK for that big a$$ airplane!

Looks like with those payrates your just a click above Mesa!

And thanks, my PIC time in the Dash 8 is working out really well.

Hmmmm House on the Water, DOCK, Waverunner, 2 Cars that are 2006, 2007. Lovely wife and kid!!
